    Yeah and for a savings account the only thing its really good for is, it stops you from impulse spending, having to go to the bank to present the book during business hours.... and a little higher rate

    Do what you want. If you really want an answer then take the time to educate yourself. Asking a bunch of truckers may not be the best approach.

    That is an abysmal return. Try talking to a financial advisor.

    This goes for all questions asked....someones occupation doesn't disqualify them from answering money questions. Im assuming those responding know what they are talking about. I wasn't asking for any financial advice as to what to do with my money. I was asking about the APY for a certain amount of money for a certain length of time thats all. Just trying to hone in on what others know.....
     
    Oxbow and Pamela1990 Thank this.

    Think of how much money you would need to invest in order earn $5000 per month.

    At the rate of 0.55% on a 5 year CD, if you did 5 million per year you'd still only get about $2300 per month....
     
    Flat Earth Trucker Thanks this.

    Buy land and just keep it. Don’t have to build. They go up in value no matter what.
